I have to say that after watching the draft, I've really changed my opinion and am in favor of some type of age limit for the NBA. It really sucks for the fans that some of these teams are taking guys that aren't going to be ready to play for years. If these young kids went to college instead, we'd have more exciting college games and we'd get to know the players better -- as dedicated a fan as I am, I'm not about to try to keep up on high school players around the country, so when they enter the draft, they're really unknown to me, and I'd guess most people.

If the trend of taking players right out of H.S. continues, it's going to be bad news for just about everyone, especially the NCAA. It's as if college hoops are becoming an afterthought almost, and I personally find many of the college games better and more entertaining than pro games.
